Simplifying
(x + 2)(2x + -4) = (2x + -1)(x)

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(2x + -4) = (2x + -1)(x)

Reorder the terms:
(2 + x)(-4 + 2x) = (2x + -1)(x)

Multiply (2 + x) * (-4 + 2x)
(2(-4 + 2x) + x(-4 + 2x)) = (2x + -1)(x)
((-4 * 2 + 2x * 2) + x(-4 + 2x)) = (2x + -1)(x)
((-8 + 4x) + x(-4 + 2x)) = (2x + -1)(x)
(-8 + 4x + (-4 * x + 2x * x)) = (2x + -1)(x)
(-8 + 4x + (-4x + 2x2)) = (2x + -1)(x)

Combine like terms: 4x + -4x = 0
(-8 + 0 + 2x2) = (2x + -1)(x)
(-8 + 2x2) = (2x + -1)(x)
